NUNEATON travel to Launceston tomorrow without leading points scorer Gareth Cull and with injury problems in the front row.

Fly-half Cull will be absent for two to three weeks after damaging ankle tendons in last week's defeat by Redruth, while prop Kevin Davis (Achilles) and hooker Dan James (groin) are both definitely out and prop Phil Boulton (back) and hooker Adam Bray (shoulder) face late tests.

Top try-scorer Lee Parry switches to No.10, the position in which he made his early first-team appearances as a colt, from the wing where Wayne Lester, a summer signing from Barkers Butts, gets a first start.

New signing Graham Thomas, who came on as a replacement last week for his debut, starts at loose head prop with Paul Kendrick on stand-by in case Boulton is ruled out.

It leaves Nuns, who are travelling to Cornwall on the day, facing a tough test against the third-placed side in National Division Two but on a ground where they pulled off an unexpected win two seasons ago.

"We're down to the bare bones, but it happens to everyone at some point and we just have to get on with it," said team manager Paul Vowles.

"We're going to be up against it and we are expecting a difficult ride, but we will give it our best shot.

"Whatever the result, a good performance will hopefully set us up for a month which could be crucial to our season with a number of games coming up against teams we should beat."
